Hi Steve,
KMZ (Google Earth) files exist for just about every known Roman military site in the Roman Empire, although the mid East and Africa are works in progress. Each file contains the following information on each site. What the site is, Legionary Fortress, Signal Station, Burgus, Siege camp, Praesidum etc as specified by the excavator. Date of first construction, of known, whether there is anything visible on the surface and if so how much is visible right up to reconstructed forts, towers or mile castles. Each site contains notes, including size if that, or indeed any information is available on the site beyond location, as well as the Roman name for the site, if known, also which units were stationed there (this bit also needs some work).
There is also a KMZ file for misc sites, bath houses, roads (although not much as this is certainly a work in progress), Roman museums etc. These files are free but must not be used for commercial purposes.
Regards
